Make Money on the Internet with RealMoneyReviews.com

Alright, so I need to develop more of plan on promoting the current service I am marketing. For the past week I have been focusing on gaining JV partners. This focus will not go away and must continue on. So far, I have JV partners totaling about 12,000 subscribers. I need more. These JV partners have not promoted my service yet (I have asked them not to until I tell them to).

There are, however, other ways I can market my service. So, I am coming up with a plan to further increase traffic to my site. I know you all probably want to know what site (service) I am constantly talking about, but I will tell you in a few weeks, or maybe if you’re lucky, a few days. I have my reasons

Here’s my 30 day plan:

1. Gain JV partners totaling 50,000 subscribers (100,000 by the end of this year).
2. Write and submit 1 article each day to Ezinearticles.com, totaling 30 articles in the end.
3. Create a splash page specifically designed for traffic exchanges and surf the exchanges.

Before anybody tries to kick me in the butt for wanting to surf traffic exchanges to get hits to my website, they must realize that my goal is not to make money directly from these traffic exchange visitors. I simply want them to opt-in to my autoresponder.

I want my end result to be me having several subscribers opt-in to my autoresponder. I will post progress checks every couple of days, so be sure to come back often if you want to know if my plan is working.

The deadline for completion is Nov. 9th.

Anywho, time for a shower and bed. Goodnight!

Joint ventures should be one of the most important items on your agenda if you have a product of your own that you just have released (or are about to). If you’re new to making money online, you probably don’t have your own list to market to and in order to be successful, you should cut deals with other marketers that do have lists related to your niche.

Here are a few tips to help you attract potential JV partners:

Give your joint venture partners a higher commission rate.

Instead of normally giving your affiliates 50% of a sale, give your JV partners 75% or more. You want to let your partners know that you are serious about making a deal, and if you don’t have a list of your own, you better offer them something better than normal.

Ensure your product or service is top notch.

If you’re looking for JV partners, you better make sure your product or service is worth buying. Nobody wants to make recommendations for crappy products. Doing so hurts their reputation and as a result, their list will become less responsive to what they have to say. Give your potential parters a review copy of your product and ensure them of quality.

Work on your sales copy.

Your partners want to make sure your sales page converts people into customers. If it doesn’t, they simply make no money and neither do you.

Build a relationship with potential partners.

Don’t just hit people up with, “I want to do a JV with you. Your list will like my product.”

Ask them how they’re doing and praise them on their own products/list/website/whatever. Participate in online forums with them. Basically, don’t be a complete stranger to them.

Offer them your services.

Sometimes offering them a higher commission doesn’t work. Think about what talents you have. Perhaps you can program. If so, offer your services in exchange for an endorsement of your product to their list.

Make them an offer they can’t refuse.

Combine some or all of the points above and make them an offer they will surely be attracted to. If you’re new to the game, sometimes you just have to do more work to gain JV partners than the other marketers who have been around a while and already have contacts.

Try to get as many JV partners as possible. You want their lists to total at least 100,000 people. So, if you have 10 JV partners, each of them should have 10,000 subscribers on their list. Does this make sense? I hope so.

When you reach out to 100,000 people across multiple lists, you will naturally attract more affiliates to promote your product. Not every subscriber is on a list because they want advice; some are other marketers wanting to know about new products being released so that they can take a piece of the pie too.

Joint ventures work VERY well if you know how to do them right. Use the tips above and I’m sure you’ll be on your way to JV success.

So, I’m pretty much DONE programming the project I have been working on and the free report that comes with the project is almost done as well. I am so excited that I am WAY ahead of schedule for release.

Over the next couple weeks I will be seeking joint ventures with other Internet marketers to help me with the launch of my new service. My new service is completely free. I will never charge a dime for my service. I can’t wait to actually release it to the public!

Over the past 48 hours I have been in contact with a few individuals willing to help me promote my service. With their help, I’m confident this launch will be VERY successful. I still have many more people to contact so I still have a lot of work ahead of me, but I look forward to it. Having the right mindset can make a huge difference, and a positive mindset is exactly what I have.

Joint ventures are extremely powerful. If you have a product of your own, you should seriously look into this type of marketing.

Stay on the lookout for more updates to come. Have a great weekend!

I’ve read numerous articles online when it comes to link building, and I’m surprised with how much outdated  information is still out there on this subject.

The following methods do not work very well anymore:

• Reciprocal links (You link to me and in return, I will link to you.)
• Free for all links (This could actually get you banned in the search engines.)
• Blog links (Most are now no-follow.)
• Myspace links

In order to have a successful link building campaign, you need to build up quality one way links, or if you do reciprocate linking, be sure to make sure the site you are reciprocating links with is related to your own site.

Also, do not ignore building links to other pages on your site other than your homepage. Sure, your homepage should be given a lot of weight in your link building campaign, but never underestimate the power of having links to your other pages. This could help you rank well for terms you never even thought of. Besides, to the search engines, having links to other pages looks less spammy (or so that is my theory).

Directories are nice for one way links, but directories don’t really give you much link juice anymore unless they come from the big boys (dmoz.org, yahoo.com, etc.). Directory links won’t hurt, but be sure to only list your site on the directories not requiring a link back to them.

The single, best way to get a link campaign going is to create true, quality content. Content that people will want to link to you for. Build a blog, create a readership, and build a relationship with your readers. If you can build a relationship with your visitors, you have a much better chance of them linking to you without you asking them to.

Remember, your visitors are people and not search engines. Keep them hungry and fed with quality content and the links will come your way.

It was only a couple days ago since my last post when I finally decided to stay focused on just one project for now. When that project is complete, I can then move on to my other ideas (one at a time, of course).

I’ve had a ton of progress. It’s absolutely amazing. In my last post I said that I wanted to get my project done by the end of next month (October 2008). Well, it looks like I’m at the very least on track. In fact, it looks like this project may be done a couple weeks before that. This, however, does not include the time I plan on marketing my service/product. I am confident though that marketing this project shouldn’t be way too much work. I think it’ll actually be relatively easy.

The progress so far:

• Most of the web pages are complete.
• The back-end system is 70% complete.
• Promotional material is 75% complete.
• Manual is 75% complete.

All of this progress has been made since Thursday night. I haven’t really worked much on the project this weekend so far, but Thursday and Friday, I probably spent about 10 hours working on the project. That’s not really a whole lot of time, but I’m amazed with how much focus can really get done. 10 hours of being focused and having your eyes set on a goal can make a ton of difference.

I know that some of you out there have ideas of your own too. Get started on them, and when you do get started on them, stay focused on them. Don’t give up because you have a new idea that comes to your mind. Write the new idea down and put it on the back burner until you finish whatever project you started on first.

Secondly, create a deadline for your projects. It’s easy to say you will get something done if you’re given all the time in the world to do it. Tell yourself that you need to get X done in Y amount of time. Supervise yourself and make sure you make your own deadlines. It can make a huge difference. Trust me.

Have you ever had an idea you knew would be big? If not, I feel sorry for you; really I do. It’s a great feeling.

So, you start working on that idea and then in the process you think of another great idea; an even better one, or so you think. Then another idea pops up, then another, another…and so on and so forth. Eventually months go by and not one of your ideas have been completed. The end result: wasted time, effort, and money.

That has been me for a while. I’ve come up with some clever ideas (not all original, but some are) and I haven’t completed any of them. I know that if I completed them, they would make me some good money. I just keep moving from one project to the next. Well, now it’s time for that to end. So, I have all of these great ideas in my head and I think I know which one is the best. So, I’m publicly announcing that I will be focusing on that one idea for now. When it’s complete, I’ll move on to the next.

All of my ideas focus on helping a beginner or even seasoned pro make money on the internet. No, I’m not writing an ebook, but rather I want to develop services that can benefit everybody. The great thing about these services is that I want them to be free.

Now I’m sure you would like to know what ideas I have, but I’m not going to release any details publicly yet. I wouldn’t want anybody stealing these ideas. I will say this though: when I complete any of these projects, you will know about it. I’m not too far away from releasing my first service to the public. It will be totally free and I’m confident it will launch with great success. I’m hoping to have it complete by the end of next month or sooner.

Trust me, you will love this service I am coming out with. It will be so easy to use and I’m very confident that you can make some very nice money using it. It is based off of an already existing service, but I made one improvement that makes my service 10 times more powerful and profitable for you.

Keep coming back for more updates about this project later on.

Sure, there are ways you can make money online without having a website, but having one will definitely give you an extra marketing tool well worth the investment.

Many people, maybe like yourself, struggle when it comes to understanding the process behind website creation. As a computer science major, website development isn’t a complicated task for me, but if you don’t have the skills in that area, it could very easily be intimidating to go about starting your own website.

Nowadays, it’s actually not that hard to create your own website. There have been so many tools released online that make creating a website much easier than what it used to be. One of these tools is Wordpress. Wordpress is totally free; doesn’t cost you a single dime. In fact, this site uses Wordpress. I like it because it’s super easy to use and adding new content doesn’t take forever (or money) to do. Sure, as a programmer, I could make my own content management system to make updating easy, but why go through the trouble when Wordpress does everything I need for it to? Anyways, if you’re just starting out and want to create a website, I would seriously recommend you try Wordpress.

Ok, so Wordpress is nice and all, but it’s not everything. You still need a domain and a hosting provider. A domain is your website’s address (like realmoneyreviews.com). A hosting provider stores your website files on their servers. In order to make your website work, you need both of these. These two things, unlike Wordpress, are not free. BUT, that does not mean it’s expensive. In fact, most people can get away paying as little as $5 a month for both of these things combined. If you’re not willing to spend $5 a month to make money online, you’re in the wrong business.

I use 1&1 as my hosting provider (2 domains come free with my hosting package). I’ve had no problems using them, plus their prices are absolutely amazing. I HIGHLY recommend getting a home Linux hosting package. You may not understand the difference between Microsoft and Linux hosting, but trust me, Linux hosting is better in my opinion and just as easy to use.

If you haven’t already read up on Wordpress, I suggest you do so now and then come back here. Isn’t it awesome? Once you setup a hosting account and register a domain (1&1 makes it easy to do), you’re ready to install Wordpress. Simply follow the directions on the site on transferring files to your hosting account and setting up a database for use with Wordpress. Easy enough? Well, I think so, but if you’re not technical minded at all, it may seem a little hard to do. That’s ok, though. I’m offering my services for free to help you setup Wordpress to work on your hosting account.

It’ll take me maybe 15 minutes to do so it’s no big deal. I’ve seen someone charge up to $150 to install Wordpress; not me though. I’m doing this for free. I don’t know how long I will offer this though. If I get swamped, I may have to turn some people down. You don’t even need to be hosted with 1&1, but if you are, it’ll make my life a whole lot easier since that is what I’m familiar with.
